I have worked with Zara on several occasions when we got 'married' on wedding shoots. She was very professional and a joy to work with and I hope to work with her again in the future.

She was very relaxed and natural to work with and although all our shoots have been wedding shoots, we always seem to find new ways to portray a different look and show a true image of a married couple.

It is great fun to work together but, that said, we both have a professional attitude and, once the photographer wants to start, the fun stops and the work begins

Delighted to final work with Zara this week.Very pleased with how the shoot went....

.Communication was great and prompt prior to the shoot date.

Her house was a great location to cover the many themes we set up to shoot.

Thanks Zara from me and Shiela :)

I worked with Zara at what is the second Stephen Perry and Zara Watson workshop I have attended and what marvellous learning experiences they have been. Zara and Stephen are very welcoming, down to earth and lovely to spend time with.

They make a great team and help to build up the confidence of any photographer. They gave a brilliant insight into what is needed to bring out the best in a model. It was instructive to see experts set up lighting and demonstrate camera and model positioning and poses and how to make a good connection with the model and create energy to enable the best results to be achieved.

Plenty to think about and ideas to use for the next shoot. I'm looking forward to doing a one-to-one shoot with Zara soon to put into practice what I have learned at these workshops.

Zara is clearly passionate about her modelling and very knowledgeable about photography too and would enable any photographer to take their skills to the next level and add good images to their portfolio.

Highly recommended.

I attended a workshop where Zara was the Model and I can honestly say that you won’t forget her and will be wanting to work with her again. Not only is she a very accomplished and experienced but she also knows a thing or two about Photography. She will advise you when you’re going wrong and keep you on track as she cares that people will produce high quality images and enjoy working with her.

I would have no hesitation in working with Zara again and would recommend her to anyone wishing to work with a Model of her calibre who would enhance anyone’s portfolio and take it to a new level. Book her, you won’t regret it!

After seeing that Zara would be moving away from the North East, I answered Zara's casting. I received prompt, helpful and friendly replies, so a shoot was arranged and booked in no time at all.

Zara is lovely to work with, very friendly, and very knowledgeable about lighting and photography in general, and happy to share her knowledge at every stage. Zara was happy to work with my ideas, and had plenty of her own as well.

I really don't understand why it took me so long to get in touch about a shoot! Thanks Zara, and thanks to Stephen for his help.

I'm sure Zara needs no more accolades but I had to add my 2 penn'eth I had the great pleasure of working with Zara on a location shoot in Liverpool. We discussed the location at the studio before heading out and instantly Zara started suggesting ideas and costumes. Her eye for a shot is second to none and when we got to our location she went instantly into character and puts 110% into every shot. Zara is a dedicated professional, very friendly, great ideas and absolutely committed to the shot. I would highly recommend working with her to any photographer as she brings so much more to the shoot. Thanks for the benefit of your experience on the day. Highly recommended

C&L Photo Studios

Zara was at our studios for the weekend, the first day was a small group shoot, just 5 photographers working on a one to one basis with Zara.

Zara is a true professional, always smiling, always working with the photographers to achieve the best possible results, Keen to try your ideas and has a few of her own.

All the photographers had a great day. on behalf of them all Zara, Thank you.

The second day of Zara's visit was spent with myself and another photographer, We ventured outside for the first half of the day shooting in an abandoned run down petrol station and also near to abandoned buildings, although Zara was cold, she never complained and I got some amazing images.

back to the studio and we covered lots of different ideas, outfits etc. with Zara coming up with some great outfits.

great posing with our without direction. Zara is one of those models it is a pleasure to work with. With her vast knowledge of lighting etc she can offer advice to any photographer if needed.

thanks Zara for a really enjoyable weekend.

100% recommended

Looks Photography

I had the pleasure of working with Zara for the second time yesterday at C & L studios.

Zara arrived bang on time with two large suit cases, and carrier bags filled with outfits, and shoes leaving you spoilt for choice. A totally professional, and versatile model with exceptional posing abilities, a lovely personality, and a sheer joy to work with once again.

Very Highly Recommended without hesitation.

Shot with Zara today, great fun brought two suitcases full of clothes and full of ideas and great looks eager to please one of the best models I've worked with. Even took an interest in the technicalities of lighting with good knowledge. I've got a feeling Zara is even more intelligent than she looks ! A privilege to meet and take photos of her thanks!

Had and amazing group shoot with Zara at C&L Studios. She was full of energy and came up with some fantastic suggestions. Zara was very chatty and made the group very relaxed. I've never seen so many cases full of great outfits.

Thanks for a great day Zara.

I shot Zara at C&L studios. She's a friendly girl who is very professional and is not scared to speak out with ideas of her own and brings an absolutely massive wardrobe with her containing some really cool outfits. I found Zara very easy to get on with and has a good sense of humour.

I'd definitely recommend booking Zara.

Thank you Zara.

From the initial pre shoot chats to the day of the shoot Zara was an absolute pleasure , nothing was to much, as i requested numerous outfits and accessories that i liked from previous work.

On the day of the shoot Zara was a total professional and a pleasure to work with..

She was fun to too,lots of laughs and willing to be sprayed with cold water and glycerin :)..{ A Trooper}

I could go on,but to sum up book this lady ,i hear in certain feeds that she seems scary etc..Let me set the records straight,she is fun,makes you at ease and has friendly and helpful input in the process..

Will definitely be booking a second shoot.." Thank you Zara "...

Another great day with Zara,attending one of Stephen Perry's Workshops.

I really enjoy working with Zara and she is always on point,having the chance to learn from both her and Stephen is something i could not pass up.

Zara is very modest,but she adds a great deal of knowledge from the perspective of the model to the workshop

I Would highly recommend attending one of Stephen and Zara's workshops..

Risked the Bank Holiday trains on Good Friday to head up to London for my second shoot with Zara. It was totally worth the effort of course. She managed to translate my vague ideas into incredible poses, and helped me get some great photos. Fun to work with and as professional as they come - I can't recommend Zara enough :)

DexterMorganPhotography

Worked with Zara during a fashion shoot workshop at NEC Photography show organised by Photoshoot Magazine.

Zara is most probably the best model I had a chance to work with so far. Very professional and full of knowledge, not just about model posing but also camera settings and lots more. Full of advice and I honestly don't think there is a person that wouldn't learn from her. Working great with and without direction, and most of all definitely the most bubbly and happy person I had shot with.

Really looking forward to be shooting with Zara again and highly recommend !!!

Just remember to bring some peanut butter with you to keep Zara happy :P

Second time shooting with the lovely Zara and as before walked away with a stack of awesome pictures and a massive grin on my face. Zara is brilliant to work with , always keen to make sure we get the best image but so down to earth and friendly at the same time that it feels like just chatting with an old school friend you've known for ages. If you want 4 hrs of your life to disappear in an instant but have an awesome set of images on your camera to remember it all , then definitely give Zara a call

Cheers Kev :)

"Did 'Zara Watson' show up?"

Yeah.

"Would you recommend 'Zara Watson' ?"

Hell yeah!

Amazing energy, infectious laugh and an incredible range of looks. So helpful and friendly throughout, genuinely enjoyable shoot and loads of great images at the end of it. Can't wait to work with her again.

AndyWilson

Had my first shoot with Zara last weekend - and I'm already looking forward to working with her again. She doesn't need much, or probably any, direction to "do her stuff" but is happy to go along with odd suggestions. She's friendly and funny as well as being incredibly photogenic - if you want a memory card (or indeed rolls of film or packs of polaroid) full of keepers you can't go wrong with Zara.

Very recommended :)

Zara crammed more poses into an hour session than I would have thought possible. She is great fun and very easy to work with.

With very little planning we got some great shots. She is one of the best on PP. very friendly and very professional.
